Brooks Koepka (hand) WDs from RBC Canadian Open
Jun 13, 2026; Caledon, Ontario, CAN; Brooks Koepka hits his tee shot at the 17th hole during the third round of the RBC Canadian Open golf tournament. Mandatory Credit: Dan Hamilton-Imagn Images Brooks Koepka acknowledged an injury to his hand after he labored through a 2-over-par 72 on the third round at the RBC Canadian Open on Saturday.
On Sunday morning, Koepka officially withdrew from the tournament at Caledon, Ontario.
The five-time major champion admitted that he was struggling with the grip of his club ahead of the fourth round.
“Yeah, I don’t know what it is. I’m struggling to grip the club with my ring finger and pinkie finger, so can’t grip it,” Koepka said.
“So the club is kind of just, my fingers would come loose, it was kind of numb. I don’t know what the deal was but hopefully we’ll figure it out.”
He opened the tournament with rounds of 64 and 68.
Koepka, 36, was spotted receiving treatment on the 11th tee box at the TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) during the third round.
“Yeah, the whole warm-up, I felt fine, I was absolutely good,” he said. “Then got to the range and went to grip the club and I just couldn’t even grip it.
“So it lasted — it was all day. Felt better the last few holes. I don’t know if that’s just the meds kicked in or what it is. But hopefully we’ll figure it out now.”
Figuring it out is paramount given the U.S. Open is next week at Shinnecock Hills in Southampton, N.Y. He won the second of his two consecutive U.S. Open championships at Shinnecock Hills in 2018.
Koepka has been back on the PGA Tour since January after more than three years away with LIV Golf. He’s placed in the top 20 in six events this year but his next win would be his first in a standard PGA Tour event since the 2021 WM Phoenix Open.

Curacao keeper Eloy Room delivers 'unbelievable' performance vs. Ecuador
Soccer Football – FIFA World Cup 2026 – Group E – Ecuador v Curacao – Kansas City Stadium, Kansas City, Missouri, U.S. – June 20, 2026 Curacao’s Eloy Room celebrates after the match Tim Howard, a United States men’s national team legend, stands alone in World Cup history with his 16-save performance in the Americans’ 2-1 Round of 16 loss to Belgium in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
But he may have been a bit worried on Saturday night, when Curacao goalkeeper Eloy Room made 15 saves in a scoreless draw against Ecuador Saturday night in Kansas City to earn Curacao’s first-ever World Cup point.
At least Room hopes so.
“A little bit annoyed that I don’t have the record from Tim Howard, but I think he was sweating in front of the TV because I was close,” Room quipped in his press conference after the match.
In some ways, Room made history in the match. His 15 saves are the most in a World Cup match by a goalkeeper who kept a clean sheet. It’s also a record for a 90-minute match, with Howard’s performance coming in a 120-minute extra-time match.
The fact that it came just one match after Room made four saves on 12 shots on net in Curacao’s 7-1 opening loss to Germany in Houston makes it that much more unbelievable.
“I think I need a statue in Curacao now,” Room said.
According to some statkeeping websites, Room actually tied the record. FIFA’s total of 16 saves by Howard is not a consensus tally.
That discrepancy doesn’t seem to be affecting how Room views the game whatsoever.
“It’s going to be an insane memory,” Room said. “You don’t think about it when you do it but of course it’s going to be something you look back to. For me as a goalkeeper, this is almost a perfect game.
” … It’s unbelievable. And I cannot do it alone. I did it with the team and my defenders and the midfielders, strikers. We did it as a team.”
While Howard played for Everton in the Premier League when he delivered his historic performance, Room has never reached those heights. The 37-year-old Netherlands native came up through a few Dutch academies and squads before settling with the Columbus Crew, with whom he won the 2020 MLS Cup.
Now, though, he’s not even in the top-level American league, playing for Miami FC in the USL Championship.
Up next, a chance for Curacao, the smallest nation in population and size to ever qualify for the World Cup, to punch a ticket to the knockout stage if they can beat Ivory Coast in Philadelphia on June 25.

Trevor Rogers yields 1 hit in 7 innings, Orioles edge Dodgers
Jun 20, 2026; Los Angeles, California, USA; Baltimore Orioles center fielder Leody Taveras (30) runs to third during the second inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium. Mandatory Credit: William Navarro-Imagn Images Left-hander Trevor Rogers gave up one hit over seven scoreless innings and Blaze Alexander had a two-run double as the visiting Baltimore Orioles escaped with a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday.
Rogers (4-7) took a no-hitter into the fifth inning and finished with two walks and six strikeouts.
The Orioles improved to 2-3 on a West Coast road trip that started in Seattle and concludes against the Los Angeles Angels this coming week.
Los Angeles right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto (7-5) went six innings as he was unable to reprise his near no-hitter at Baltimore last season. He allowed three runs on six hits with two walks and six strikeouts.
After missing one game for the birth of his second child, the Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani returned to the leadoff spot and hit a home run in the ninth inning. Tommy Edman had a pair of singles for Los Angeles, which saw its four-game winning streak come to an end.
The Orioles jumped in front 1-0 in the second when Leody Taveras and Colton Cowser led off the inning with consecutive singles to put runners on the corners. Coby Mayo’s groundout scored Taveras.
Baltimore increased the advantage in the fourth inning. Again they opened an inning with consecutive singles, this time from Samuel Basallo and Taveras. After Mayo walked with one out to load the bases, Alexander hit a two-out double down the third base line to score a pair of runs for a 3-0 lead.
Rogers cruised into the fifth inning where he gave up his first hit of the game on a two-out single to center from Edman.
Rogers’ only scare came in the seventh inning when he walked Mookie Betts with two outs before Miguel Rojas hit a ball to the base of the center field wall that was caught by Cowser.
The Dodgers pulled within a run in the ninth when Ohtani hit a home run, his 16th of the season, and Edman’s line drive was dropped by Taveras with two outs, allowing a second run to score. Right-hander Yennier Cano finished off his first save by striking out Kyle Tucker to strand runners on the corners.
